Refinance

Refinancing is an idea often floated around when you have had your current loan for several years and have found that since taking out the loan, your needs have changed. Refinancing can mean many different things and has a variety of terms and conditions associated with it.

Refinancing is the process of using a new loan to pay your current home loan. This new loan can be with your existing lender or an alternate one. Doing your research is important because you could be looking at a better deal by switching lenders.

Loans and what is available has changed a lot in the past few years and with a range of flexible features or additional products available on the market, you might be looking at refinancing. It is always good practice to review your home loan and financial situation from time to time, so you can find a home loan that suits you and your family’s needs better.

There are several reasons people choose to refinance apart from their own financial situation. There may be better interest rates, more flexible repayments or maybe they are looking to consolidate their debts. You might even be looking at unlocking the equity in your property for renovations. Whatever the reason, consulting a loan specialist is paramount to achieving the result you want.

There are always some factors to consider, like: upfront costs or any ongoing costs with your current loan and how these may change with switching to a new home loan. These costs could be anything like establishment fees, exit fees, settlement fees and other charges. Under the right circumstances, refinancing is incredibly beneficial. While it can be costly in the short term, you will be experiencing great long-term savings.

The process for refinancing is simple. First, take some time and investigate available lenders and mortgages. Applying for a refinancing loan is the same as any other mortgage. You will have to provide supporting documentation and upon submitting the application, your lender may require a property valuation. After being granted the loan, your new mortgage is used to pay off your old mortgage or even your car loan, tax debt or credit cards: all within the one monthly repayment.

Mortgage brokers investigate and do the shopping around for you. They will only recommend the best and most suitable mortgage for your financial situation. They will even submit your application on your behalf. Get in touch with an experienced mortgage broker today and get started on your refinancing.
